Choosing the right infill structure for 3D printing

In 3D printing, creating hollow objects is a common practice to reduce material usage, shorten printing time, and achieve specific design goals. One of the most critical elements when hollowing out 3D printing is the infill structure, which determines the strength, weight, and durability of the finished print. In this article, we will explore what infill structure is and how to choose the right infill density and pattern. What is infill structure in 3D printing? Infill refers to the material inside a ......

How to Split Large 3D Prints for Better Quality and Assembly

A common challenge when using 3D printing is printing large or complex models that don't fit into the printer's build volume; smaller parts can be printed with greater detail because a smaller print area reduces the risk of warping or misalignment while reducing the number of supports. This guide will walk you through the process of splitting a 3D part. Source: https://store.trimech.com/blog/three-tips-when-splitting-a-large-part-for-3d-printing Step 1: Analyze the Model and Determine Split Points The......
